Ignition coil wires have gone bad.
2000 Nissan Maxima electrical complaints
Page 7 of 7: complaints 161 to 171 of 171, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I own a 2000 nissan maxima. Since the purchase in 2000 we have had several problems with the electrical. Blown fuses, ignition coils replaced, etc. When my power windows stopped working, then my door locks, then my lights I decided to take it to an independant mechanic. Under the driver's seat there are 3 motors, all with wiring. The wiring was run in such a way that wires had been rubbed & pressed against metal partsf of the vehicle, leaving bare wires exposed. So, when you would sit on the seat the wires would touch metal and short out. I feel fortunate that I was not a victim of a fire beneath the seat which I believe would have been the ultimate outcome. I think this should be checked out to see if it is a common problem with this year and make of vehicle. 2000 nissan maxima se. Thank you.
Ignition coils have failed and been replaced and now ABS/tcs indicator lights flash on and off; dealer told me ABS was not operational if the light was on, but ABS is operational based on self-test on the road. Based on the number of electrical/ignition complaints, it is clearly an electrical problem that nissan and/or the dealer is not addressing.
2000 nissan maxima - ignition coils failing pre-maturely. Loss of power.
Vehicle would exhibit loss of power, misfiring and loud pinging noises at half throttle or more when passing or accelerating into highway traffic and when passing at any speed. Also, the engine had an intermittent rough idle problem. Rough enough to shake entire vehicle and either force me to pull over or prevent me from driving off safely. When I let the engine cool I would continue the trip hoping the problem would not recur. Both problems were determined to be ignition coil(s) related. All six coils were replaced because no diagnostic trouble code "dtc" to pinpoint an individual coil had registered at the ecu computer along with no service engine light "ses". The vehicle was less than three years old but had 37,500 miles. These coils are electrical components and are affected by age and/or design and not by miles driven. I did not qualify for warranty repair.
Ignition coil failed, this is a defective part, so many have failed on this model. That none are available and nissan is looking at different manufacturers because of the number of problems. Dt
Consumer states that the front and rear passenger side tire loses air quickly. Consumer is force to put more air in the tire than usual. Dealer notified. Size#p23575r15. Please provide the dot#. *mr the right side of the vehicle was missing wheel locks. Wiper inserts were worn. Check the engine light came on due to ECM failure.
Consumer brought vehicle in for replacement of the cylinder ignition coil. The replacement part was not covered under any vehicle warranties. The vehicle was taken in for service because it was mis firing under driving conditions and was hazardous to drive. The power train did not operate properly to deliver power from the engine to the wheels.
We are currently waiting for a # 6 coil for our 2000 maxima, this part is on back order from the manufacturer and there are no available parts in the u.s. Since this part is on hold for other customers at other dealerships in the area, it seems to me that this part is failing on a lot of new cars(under three years old) this part should be recalled. We've also experienced a failure with the transmission and since our car was still under warranty at the time, we had it fixed at the manufacturers expense. Instead of receiving a new one we received a "rebuilt" one. How do you have a "rebuilt" transmission on hand for a brand new car is a question I've never had answered from the maufacturer.
Brought in initially and ECM was reset. Two days later failed again. On return for service fuel injector #6 was replaced. Two days later failure occurred again. Engine service light is on. Feel this is a safety concern because I have no idea if a major problem has occurred or the sensor is just not working properly.
In cold weather conditions vehicle stalls without warning. Dealer has inspected vehicle and determined that the problem is within the computer.
